No, the bug is closed. There no such thing as "open in unstable".
AFAIK, the right terminology for this is to say that the bug *affects*
unstable, but there is only one open and closed thing, and it's
orthogonal to version tracking and (in this case) it's being used in
an unhelpful way.

Exactly my point. By making the traditional open/close semantics
meaningless when such thing is not strictly required by version
tracking, you are making my work as QA tester more complicated than it
needs to be.
On the other hand, if you think this open/closed thing really makes
things more complicated than they need to be, you should probably
advocate for removing such feature from the BTS completely. I'm all
for simplifying things...
Thanks.
